more work than I know what to do with
At Tekko, I got an invite to vend at the Wildrose Ren Faire, a newbie fair that's just getting its legs under itself. It looks like a fun time--very laid back, and it'd let me bring Kabuki!--it's just only about three hours away. Travel and lodging would kill me, Kabuki or no. :( (But I still might have to visit one weekend, to look.)
I also got accepted at a local craft festival two weeks from now . . . that wants me to bring my own 10x10' tent. I don't have a tent. I don't know where I'd get a tent, or how I'd transport it there. I might have to bail on them.
But! I am gonna end up at a local bellydance yard sale-type venue next weekend. There's no demands there besides to bring something tasty for sharing.
I love this crowd, really.
Next big show, though, is ACen. I'm not sure what else I need to make for there--though I should probably make a standing/folding necklace display and do have the crazy idea that I should make pirate hats. I figure the pirate market is still out there--lost, confused, possibly a little drunk, and wondering where the fuck all the ninjas came from--and that hats would be a quick way to corner it. I even turned out a few already. They look . . . plain.
Plainness can be fixed, of course--all I need is some buttons, ribbon, possibly feathers, and/or some trim. They also need spray starch. Oh, and to be priced.
I wonder what people would pay for a felt pirate hat. :-\
The con buddy is on the lookout for Otakon's AA opening. If we could get in there, we'd be set for months. We'd also panic for months beforehand, trying to get ready. It'd be epic. I kinda really hope we get in. But with the way artists' alleys have been filling up this year . . .
Meh. No harm in trying. :)
